Again, he had to get the ball from somewhere and he would have no reason to lie about it. He was a 12 year old kid when it was given to him. For all we know, that man who gave him the ball knew it was not real and that is the reason for giving him the ball. Unfortunetly, he passed away in the 80's, so I never got to hear the story directly from him. I've never seen so many quick to judgment people like there are on this board. I guess it's the nature of business you guys are in.

it's not a business for most here....Forgeries and fish stories are just relentless, day after day, week after week year after year. That's why the quick judgments I think? It's the same BS, just a different day. It has multiplied 10 fold in the past couple of years as you can't tell whose a moron and whose not with-out a scorecard these days.

I for one love the Fish stories! I agree. Don't tell grandma. She'll nag grandpa in his grave and we don't want that....Bad Karma. Good luck
